THE CONNECTS MUTINY.
Further Particulars of the Means
Taken to Compel Their Submission.

KNOXVILLE. TENN, Sept. 27.-For some reason
the full particulars OF the mutiny OF the conyicts
at Coal Creek can't be obtained. The Knoxville
Iron Co. is very reticent about the affair. An in
SpectOr returned from the mines yesterday and
saws the troubles have been settled. On last
Thursday at the dinner hour the conyict5 refused
to leave the mines. Tney claimed that the food
was so bad and the tasks so heavy that they could
no longer endure IL, and that they would remain
In the mines until better fare and more humane
treatment were promised. The guards would
promise nothing and the cOnvictS refused 10 move
an inch. Every effort was made TO remove them
to the stockade peaceably, but they held out
against the threats and entreates born OF despera
ton Then, it is said, the guards fired into them,
wound1ng several negroes; but this Is denied. AT
any rate Friday afternoon they shut of the ven-
tilatiOn, and on Saturday afternoon the cOnyictS
yielded to the men. The closing OF the ventilation
SHAFT drove them to the mouth OF the mine and
there they crowded around the opening, fighting
among themselves for front seats They endured
the most eXcruc1attng fortunes before giving up.
and IL said several or them entirely exhausted
when they surrendered. Mr.. Burrows states that
everything is quiet and that he apprehends no fur
thor trouble.

THE TEXAS lNsURRECTION.

One Militia Company Gone 10 the
Scene Of COnflict-NO one but Negroes
Reported Killed.
HOUSTON, TEXAS, Sept. Growing to the lack Of
facilities on the railroad leading 10 Brazoria
County, the Houston Light Guards did not get
away for the seat OF the negro instruction until
8 O'Clock last night, and cannot reach Caney Creek
before noon to-day. Capt. Reichardt took twenty
men with him with large quantity or ammuni-
ton. Another company Is held in reserve here
awaiting further orders from the governor. Alarm
ing reports. which could not be traced to any re-
liable source, were in circulation last night as to
the seriousness OF the conflict which TOOK place
yesterday morning between the negroes and Sheriff
Hickey's possee. Nothing positive was known
here up to a late hour last night about the tight
or how many were killed, but il was reported
that several negroes were killed. Brazoria and
Matagorda Counties are largely populated by
negroes, and many bloody race battles have been
fought In both counties during the past ten years,
especially during election seasons. Caney Greek
settlement, where the present trouble originated,
is in the extreme southeastern corner oI Mata-
gorda County, 3o miles west OF Columbia the
county seat OF BrazoriG County. There are no
telegraph lines in that county. and news OF the
fight will be carried 10 Columbia py couriers.

IDENTIFY Going On Chamberlain,s
Schemes.
Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Sept. 27.-Some curious underhand
maneuvering is going on about the land pur-
chase In Ireland. The point OF Lord Randolph
Churchill's speech was his advice to Bal
four to postpone his promised scheme 10
see how the present act works. Obviously If
land purchase is TO come within the next TWO
years, home rule will come direct result. The
tories know this. / do not believe they really
dread IL, but they are not anxious to hasten the
end unless there Is tremendous pressure on the
part OF the landlords 1t is just possible that land
purchase will be pushed back somewhat further.
1t is said that Chamberlain means TO take a new
departure In Ulster. and 10 outline a scheme OF
land purchase with municipal rather than impe-
rial guarantee. He has also a scheme OF local
government which he Will challenge Gladstone TO
accept or repudiate. Whatever he may say he is
handicapped by the fact he has thrown himself
into the arms or the Orangemen who are making
extensive preparations for his reception.

Nizam is the greatest OF Mohommedan princes,
and made striking impression during his stay in
London. His manners are charming and he is a
delightful Indian gentleman. No doubt the Mo-
hommedan princes in India have made up their
minds that Russian invasion is rapidly approach
Ing. Their disposition generally is favorable 10
British rule. Then also there is an impression in
Anglo-Indian circles that there is panic, but IL
has not reached here. On the contrary, Salisbury
relations to Russia are more friendly than they

ELLIS SAYS.


ELLIS SAYS.
STAR reporter met Hon. E. ]. Ellis this morn
Ing and made the following inquiries:
Rep.-Mr. Ellis, it Is reported that T. j. Semmes
OF New Orleans, has arrived with delegation OF
friends TO press his appointment to the bench. Do
you know anything OF it?
Mr. Ellis.-Yes; it is true only in the fact that
Mr. Semmes IS in this city. He is not here with a
delegation OF friends; he is not here to see the
President; he is not here directly or remotely in
reference to the Supreme bench vacancy. He Is
here to study and prepare the Gaines case now
on appeal to the Supreme Court, and assigned for
hearing early in October.
Rep.-Have you seen MI. Semmes since his ar
r;yale
Mr.. Ellts-YeS, he was in my Office an hour this
morning. He strongly deprecates the impression
created by the newspapers that he Is here seeking
the appointment. He has not seen the President,
nor VIII hs seek to see him either personally or
through friends His views OF place on the Su-
preme bench is the lofty and correct view. The
place should seek the man, and not the man the
place. You may say positively that Mr.. SemmeS'
visit here Is purely private and professional, the
preparation OF great case, and II you want to
nnd him go TO the law library at the Capitol at
any time between and O'Clock. He is too great
as lawyer and too good as man, and his life too
busy to be lingering about Washington hunting
an Office.
